What does it mean to be antifragile, and why does Bitcoin fit the definition better than anything else? Michael Kelly returns to continue our discussion of Nassim Taleb’s “Antifragile”: we explore the gap between invention and implementation, the arrogance of academic models, the elegance of Bitcoin’s design, the difference between “street-smarts” and “book-smarts, the role of leisure in driving progress, and how true antifragility emerges through practice, not theory. Michael J Kelly III, is a producer and creative strategist with a passion for natural science and the intersection of politics and biology.
